Support Local Farms: Pick Your Own Fruits and Veggies!

Posted on June 8, 2017 Posted in Ashley's Lists, Day Trips, Out and about..., Things to Do!, Uncategorized .

It’s the most wonderful time of the year!
Head out for some family time and support your local farmers.
Last year we picked sweet peas, strawberries and blueberries. This year we hope to pick to add peaches, green beans and cherries to our list!
